We often think of leadership as a never-ending sprint, constant effort, nonstop output, and relentless hustle. But what if real leadership is more like interval running: focused bursts followed by intentional rest?


In this episode, I’m sharing the leadership lessons I’ve learned from lacing up my running shoes. We’ll explore why leading in seasons, prep, push, plateau, and recovery, is not only more sustainable, but more powerful. Whether you’re managing a team, running a business, or just trying to lead yourself well, this is your permission to stop enduring and start leading in rhythm.


What You’ll Learn:

  • Why hustle culture sets us up for burnout and resentment
  • How to identify which leadership season you’re in, and how to work with it
  • Tangible strategies for integrating cycles of prep, effort, reflection, and recovery into your leadership style


Key Takeaways:


  • Leadership is a rhythm, not a sprint, honoring the cycle helps you lead better and last longer
  • Rest isn’t weakness, it’s strategic recovery that fuels your next burst of impact
  • Recognizing your season helps you lead with clarity, compassion, and effectiveness


Call to Action:
Which season are you in right now, prep, push, plateau, or recovery? Take a moment to reflect and journal or share with your team. Then screenshot this episode and tag @GingerBiz with your season and what resonated most!
